AutoMiddleEast has posted a review of the Lexus CT 200h that’s worth reading — and not only just to get a glimpse of the model in Ultrasonic Blue (an exterior color not yet available in North America) or because the reviewer admits to taking the press car up to 109mph.

No, the real insight comes with the reviewer’s unique perspective into how the CT 200h fits in a market where fuel conservation is hardly a daily concern.
